How do you affect a game when not botlane?
If games always snowball down at botlane by 5 minutes, how do you be any relevant to the game before your first item is even completed?

As a midlaner: If you are an assassin: roam bot, get 1-2 kills at lvl6. Enemies should still be lvl4-5 so 3v2 should be easy even if your botlane is behind. After the roam, take a drake. Return later with your jungler, kill botlaners again, take down the tower If you are a mage: win your lane, burst that fed adc in teamfights whenever he enters your range.
As a toplaner: Well sucks. Try to apply pressure safely, this forces enemy jungler to waste more time top which allows your jungler to gank bot/take drakes. Use TP to help your botlane if there is a big fight starting.
Of course this only works if you are stronger than your lane opponent, but that's only fair.
roam bot lane, if your top, roam bot, if your mid, roam bot, if your jg camp bot
I'd say, team depending, bot lane is at least killable unless nobody on your team did good. Nothing worse than a fed olaf, ww, rumble, ect. So many champs can get ahead AND be really rough to kill.
to be fair, getting 4 man dived while your team does fuck all doesn´t really give you that sense of agency either. As midlaner you can be at least proactive in your roams, while, as a botlaner, you often have to sit there and hope that teammates come to you. And nothing feels worse than prioritizing ganking potential over lane pressure, just to be completely ignored by your jgler who just autopilots through his jgl and only ganks when he feels like it.
And then people wonder why selfish and self-reliant champions are so popular. ( mage supports and co. )
By ganking botlane assuming they aren't already 0/12 which they probably are lol
In that case, basically you just lose bc adcs do so much damage no one can compete with a fed adc unless the adc has some literal brain damage level positioning
I could ask the same question when my solos and junglers are turbo inting.
As much as you don't wanna admit it, Bot Lane is not the best and most important roles in Season 10.
Mid and Jungle are by far the most important.
